У Празі відбувся велелюдний мітинг «Руки геть від суспільних ЗМІ» на підтримку незалежності Чеського телебачення та Чеського радіо. — Укрінформ.
The Old Town Square in the city center was completely filled with people who disagreed with the intentions of the government coalition to cancel concession fees for public media and transfer their financing to the state budget.
This, many believe, will make Czech Television and Czech Radio dependent on the government. Therefore, the rally, among other things, called for the government to resign.
Protests have also taken place in other cities in the Czech Republic. The organizers, the association "A Million Minutes for Democracy", are calling for a new demonstration on November 15.
The post of the public movement on the social network X states: “They have crossed the line, we will not let them get away with it… 4:36. A time that has become a symbol of authoritarian audacity and disregard for democratic rules. Who makes fateful decisions at 4:36 in the morning?
Activists are not only demanding the withdrawal of the bill, but also an apology from politicians to citizens and respect for democratic rules.
Відповідний законопроєкт поза планом було подано на дебати до Палати представників у п'ятницю. Депутати обговорювали його всю ніч аж до 04:36 ранку, після чого направили його на друге читання. Тепер до гасел протестантів додалося: «Ми проти 4:36!»
